Tile

Charles Volkmar

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The tile, by Charles Volkmar, depicts a landscape scene with a white background featuring red speckles. Three brown tree trunks with roots are positioned in the foreground. The trees have darker brown and black shadows cast on them. The ground is covered in green and brown hues. A dark blue border surrounds the tile's edges. The background shows an area with greenery to the left and two dark, tall, rock-like formations on the right.
